I'm caring for me, who's 79. After the death of his spouse Cristian can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Cristian desperately wants to stay at home. I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Cristian worked all of his life as a schoolteacher, and raised 4 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for six months will make a huge difference. The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices. Where the $5,650 goes: • Part-time carer (six months): $4,350 • Medication and prescriptions: $390 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $310 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $600 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Cristian
